Should be fixed in 2.6.23.9-85 or higher. I'll keep an eye on it. I recently went to 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 and thought I saw the problem again yesterday. I noticed that I had another line about the serial device that wasn't there when I wrote things down for the bug report. If I confirm that it is still happening with this kernel I'll update the bug. Because of another kernel bug, I end up rebooting that machine pretty often (every couple of days) to recover from IO hangs. It did reoccur today with kernel 2.6.23.9-85.fc8, so it looks like there is still an issue. I saw it again on 2.6.23.14-107.fc8. I am going to try to upgrade this machine to Rawhide. If that works I won't have an easy way to test 2.6.23 kernels any more, but I'll report back if I see the problem with 2.6.24 kernels or if it doesn't happen again for a long time. I saw it again on 2.6.25-0.65.rc2.git7.fc9. I haven't seen this is a while now. Since it wasn't happening very often before, I don't want to declare it fixed, just give you an update of what I haven't been seeing. I had this (a hang until keypress) with 2.6.25.10-86.fc9.i686. I had this happen twice in a row with 2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686. In the first case where it was over 12 hours before I had physical access to the machine, hitting keys did not continue the boot. On the next try, where it also hung, hitting a key did continue the boot process. I have retired the machine that was doing this (at work) and no longer have access to the hardware to do further testing. This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
